Online self-scheduling, secure texting, and Saturday urgent care help neighbors and hometown athletes get the care they need, close to home.
FLORENCE, Ala. — For more than three decades, North Alabama Bone & Joint Clinic has cared for the people who make the Shoals home. With new online self-scheduling, secure texting, ongoing Saturday orthopedic urgent care, and additional Saturday morning availability for athletes during football season, the practice is making that care easier to access.
From Friday Night Sidelines to Saturday Morning Care
NABJC’s support for hometown teams continues long after the final whistle. In addition to covering the sidelines at games across the Shoals, the practice continues its tradition of setting aside additional time for athletes at its Saturday Orthopedic Urgent Care during football season. That means injured players can receive orthopedic evaluation the very next morning.
Saturday care is also available to the broader community. Bone & Joint’s Orthopedic Urgent Care welcomes walk-in patients at its Florence location every Saturday from 8 a.m. to noon, with no appointment needed. Patients can receive evaluation for sports injuries, sprains and strains, possible broken bones, joint injuries, and sudden or worsening orthopedic pain.
Whether an injury happens under the Friday night lights or while tackling a weekend project, patients have access to orthopedic expertise right here at home.
Schedule From Home, Even in Your Pajamas
NABJC’s new online self-scheduling makes booking an appointment easier to fit into everyday life. Whether patients are relaxing in their pajamas in Muscle Shoals, finishing dinner in Tuscumbia, or getting the kids settled in Sheffield, they can schedule from their phone, tablet, or computer without having to make a call during the workday.
For another convenient way to connect with the practice, patients can securely text NABJC at 256-246-3212 instead of waiting on hold. Saving this textable number in their phone puts the practice within easy reach.
Patients who prefer to schedule by phone can continue to call 256-718-3200.
These options reflect a commitment that has guided North Alabama Bone & Joint for more than 30 years: caring for the Shoals with the expertise patients need and the personal connection they expect from people who know this community best.
